GRAPHIC DESIGN (with a side of brisket and tostones)I believe that good design is about more than, well, just design. It’s about a partner who understands what it’s like to run a business (I’m going on 3+ decades), meet deadlines, and seamlessly integrate into your department or projects. Design is my obsession (along with cooking, tennis, and the beach), and the drive to keep innovating stems from my no-nonsense, process-driven approach to creative work (with a heaping spoonful of fun). STRATEGIC BUSINESS PARTNERI’ve been around long enough to know that logos, colors, and type are important, but relationships, trust, and problem-solving are vital to nailing creative that moves the needle — or funds an entire building (ask me about Oxford University’s $240M endowment). Clients say I listen, get stuff done, am indispensable, and am always ready to roll up my sleeves and pitch in — like when I was asked to create a 300-page rookie guide for a major sports league in a matter of weeks.CAPABILITIES THAT EXPAND TO MEET YOUR NEEDSFrom corporate to non-profit and everything in between, I offer the personal attention of a nuanced, visual storyteller combined with the extensive and collaborative capabilities of a firm. The beauty of having my own agency is the flexibility to scale up or down based on your needs. I’ve amassed quite the talented pool of collaborators (who amaze me daily), but, never fear, you’ll always get me as your main point of contact. And, if you care about this kind of stuff, I’ve won 77 national design awards.PERSONAL TOUCHPerhaps the secret to my success, and the one thing that’s never changed, is my philosophy on offering a personal touch to my clients. Most have been with me for years, mostly because I'm a trusted resource and act like one of their own (or maybe it’s my witty banter).
